Martha Stewart and Marquee Brands Partner with Canopy Growth Corporation to Launch Martha Stewart CBD
New Line to Include CBD Wellness Products for People and Pets
SMITHS FALLS, ON & NEW YORK, NY (Sept. 10, 2020) – Canopy Growth Corporation (TSX:WEED, NYSE:CGC), a world-leading diversified cannabis, hemp, and cannabis device company, today announced the launch of Martha Stewart CBD– a new line of premium quality, hemp-derived wellness supplements, with flavor profiles inspired by some of Martha’s most popular recipes. The initial product offering will include a range of human wellness supplements, with a gift box and pet line launching later this year.
The new portfolio of natural, gourmet flavored wellness gummies, softgels and oil drops are specially formulated by Martha Stewart, in collaboration with the cannabinoid scientists at Canopy Growth, to deliver a delicious and consistent daily dose of pure, premium CBD isolate. Inspired by ingredients in Martha’s own kitchen, the products are naturally flavored and are made in the USA with hemp-derived CBD isolate. The results are pure, safe and great-tasting CBD products that are easy to incorporate into your daily wellness routine.
“I’ve found that CBD supplements are a simple way to enhance my own health and wellness, especially when it comes to managing the stresses of daily life,” said Martha Stewart. “I set out to create the most delicious CBD products on the market, drawing inspiration from some of my favorite recipes and flavor profiles from my greenhouse and gardens. My wellness gummies closely resemble the French confections, pâte de fruits, rather than the sticky, overly sweet versions you might find elsewhere. Created in collaboration with the top researchers and scientists at Canopy Growth, I am very proud of the end result: wellness gummies, oil drops and softgels that taste as wonderful as they make you feel.”
At launch, the Martha Stewart CBD product line includes:
- Martha Stewart CBD 10mg Wellness Gummies in Citrus Medley (Meyer Lemon, Kumquat and Blood Orange flavors, 30 count) for $34.99
- Martha Stewart CBD 10mg Wellness Gummies in Berry Medley (Raspberry, Huckleberry and Black Raspberry flavors, 30 count) for $34.99
- Martha Stewart CBD 25mg Softgels (Unflavored, 30 count) for $44.99
- Martha Stewart CBD 750mg Oil Drops (Blood Orange, Meyer Lemon or Unflavored) for $44.99
Said Canopy Growth CEO David Klein of the partnership, “We are committed to leading the CBD industry by providing trusted brands, which is why we’ve chosen to collaborate with Martha Stewart, someone who people turn to for advice on living well. Together, we’re bringing consumers science-backed, premium quality products in elegantly designed and gourmet flavored formats, available at a price point that makes Martha Stewart CBD one of the best values on the market.”
